m-axis instruments allow you to determine the magnetic moment and magnetization direction of permanent magnets in seconds.
Product Description
m-axis is a measurement system that can be used to characterize permanent magnets in terms of their magnetic specifications (magnetic moment and magnetization angle) with high precision. In addition to the four standard measuring ranges, the modular design allows the system to be adapted to customer-specific requirements. The measurement systems can be used for 100% in-line quality control via our m-axis I/O module.
Design & Function
The m-axis calculation method is based on the determination of the dipole properties of permanent magnetic materials using integrated AMR sensor technology. The magnetic moment (m) and the spatial direction of the magnetization (ϕ, θ) are determined in addition to the three-dimensional position of the magnet (x,y,z). This approach allows both axially and diametrically magnetized dipole permanent magnets to be measured against their specifications.
Analysis and documentation of the measurement data is carried out with the aid of comprehensive user software. The m-axis instruments can be quickly and easily integrated into a production process by storing measurement processes and magnet types. All relevant settings and measurement results can be output in a measurement report!
A further advantage of the m-axis instruments is the internal quality monitoring provided by the localization algorithm, which can detect and display magnetic disturbances during measurement.
